Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

In this breathless page-turner, the latest in the Posleen military SF series from Ringo and Kratman (Watch on the Rhine), Latin America falls to the reptilian alien invaders without much struggle, except for Panama. There, members of the U.S. military enlist local forces and desperately resist. The terrain aids the defenders, as do the local flora and fauna, but it's the fighting men and women's brains and guts that make the real difference. Interestingly, the hideous, hungry Posleen, who are helplessly following their racial instincts, come across as more sympathetic than the cowardly traitors—i.e., diplomats and politicians—who obstruct the human warriors; the aliens get to die with more dignity. Characterization generally is exaggerated but vivid, and the battle tactics are worked out in satisfying detail. Readers who can forget the authors' right-wing politics and approach it all like a professional wrestling show will have fun. (Apr.)

From Booklist

The latest Posleen War novel's title comes from an old song about yellow fever in Panama, site of the battle in it between the alien Posleen invaders and both Americans defending the canal and Panamanians defending their homeland with growing assurance and skill. The usual many good action scenes are on hand, along with sometimes overly political but often intelligent lectures on military science and the expected charming superweapon, here the old heavy cruiser Des Moines, fitted with a number of advanced systems, including an AI named Daisy. The series already has a number of fun books in it. This is another. Roland Green

2.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining, but too political for my tastes., Sep 9 2008
By Moe Sasseville "Moester" (Montreal, QC, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Yellow Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
This books screams Kratman, while both Kratman and Ringo have obvious right-leaning views, it seems that every one of Kratman's books has only praise for conservative politicians. His obvious dislike...one might even say hatred...for lefties and greens is so obvious that it takes me out of the book. I would have greatly appreciated a more nuanced and balanced approach to the politics of the book. The action scenes are fun and memorable, an acceptable addition to the overall story, but in my opinion, the politics ruin the flow of the book.

This feels more like someone is putting their heads in the sand and ignoring that there are bad people everywhere. I'm guessing that the author thought that the war in Iraq remains unwon because the left hamstrung the noble Bush's efforts to bring peace to the region.
